See a provider: You need to have an exam and perhaps some lab work to determine the cause of these things. There are Women's Clinics in most places and if you have no PCP, they'd help w/ this sort of need. It may be very minor, but you do need to know. Hope hope you're fine or that this is easy to resolve. Best wishes!
